Stagman Ridge approach Mt Adams

[Fairweather]

Has anyone used this approach for White Salmon Glacier? More specifically, is the road normally suitable for a 2wd car?

While I have never used the road to make a climb on Adams, I have been up there on many occasions. The road is very suitable for a 2wd car depending on snow levels. I've only been up there in the fall (Oct-Nov)so not sure when it becomes snow free. Trail up Stagman Ridge has always been in good shape.

Thanks! That's what I wanted to know. I'm thinking that it might be melted out by Memorial Day since the road end is at 4500 feet. I'm wanting to take my son up White Salmon Glacier as a two day...hopefully we can avoid those nasty lahars!
